Description
Elongate; subparallel; subdepressed; shining black; basal ⅔of elytra yellowish, apical ⅓black; scutellum and legs black; venter yellowish with dark maculae. Head: vertex strongly, densely punctate, medial sulcus present; frons not projecting; slightly depressed between eyes. Antenna: longer than head and pronotum combined; slender; antennomere 1 clavate, elongate, thick; 2–4 cylindrical, elongate, 2 ½ length 3, 4 longer than 2; 5–10 transverse, decreasing in length; 11 longer than 10, broadly rounded at apex; 1–2 punctate with scattered setae; 3–11 setose. Pronotum: transverse; lateral margin straight then rounding to anterior angle, canaliculate; anterior angle rounded, not produced; posterior angle acute; anterior margin straight; disc subconvex; surface coarsely punctate; transverse basal impression present; pronotal length 1.2–1.4 mm; pronotal length 1.4–1.6 mm. Scutellum: pentagonal; punctate. Elytron: lateral margin straight, smooth, narrowly margined; apex rounded; sutural angle without tooth; humerus rounded, not produced; slightly constricted behind humerus; slightly flattened on disc; moderately punctate-striate, punctures obsolete apically; pygidium pentagonal; elytral length 4.3–4.8 mm; elytral width 2.0–2.2 mm. Venter: pro-, meso-, and metasterna punctate; abdominal sterna punctate, each puncture with pale seta; suture between sterna 1 and 2 complete; last sternite with apical margin truncate at apex in female, weakly emarginate then sinuate medially in male. Leg: slender; punctate, each puncture with pale seta; tibia with fringe of setae on inner margin of apex. Total length: 5.6–6.8 mm.
Diagnosis
This species is similar to Cephaloleia forestieri. It can be distinguished by antennomere 1 being longer than 3.
Host plant
According to label data, adults have been collected feeding on Heliconia sp. (Heliconiaceae).
Distribution
Bolivia, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, Venezuela.
